Attenuated apoptosis response to Fas-ligand in active ulcerative colitis

21 Citations (Scopus)

Abstract

From mainly carcinoma cell line studies, apoptosis has been thought to play a major role in the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC). Apoptosis has been suggested to be due to a Fas ligand / Fas receptor interaction, but has never been studied in cells from patients with active UC. The aim was to investigate both the spontaneous and the cell death receptor ligand-induced apoptosis in UC.
